AMD’s Ryzen 7 5800X3D reportedly reaches end of life as availability ends
AMD’s best AM4 CPU for gamers appears to have reached the end of its life cycle
AMD’s Ryzen 7 5800X3D is an incredible CPU. It was the first processor to launch with AMD’s 3D V-Cache technology and remains an excellent gaming CPU to this day. Its massive L3 cache allows for excellent gaming performance, so much so that “Should you what for the X3D version?” is a talking point after AMD launches any new CPU architecture.
Now, it looks like AMD’s Ryzen 7 5800X3D has reached the end of its lifespan. Availability (at least at sane prices) has dried up in Europe, and the same is happening in the US. Now, if you want an X3D chip for your AM4-based PC, you should go for AMD’s lower-clocked Ryzen 7 5700X3D, which remains available for under £180.
The AMD 5800X3D is a legendary processor, and its successors remain some of the best gaming CPUs available. AMD’s X3D technology has transformed the gaming CPU market. Even now, gamers eagerly await the release of AMD’s Ryzen 7 9800X3D, the Zen 5 successor to the AM4 legend. Rumour has it that this CPU will be launching next month.
